Logan hailstorm

So who enjoyed the chubby rain just before? We've got a few holes in the carport and verandah roofs now. Some of the hailstones were a bit larger than golfballs. I've never seen anything like it in all my time here.

And im surprised the west didnt get a thing!!

My parents are about 10kms west of me (Tivoli) and they got hail the size of 10c peices, but we have had nothing! Just watching the light show now looking out the window while I write this

Cars are all covered up (B'bird in the garage, laser under the car cover & SP20 under blankets & towels

I hope it stays out at Toowong

The house where I am at was getting its roof done and so when it rained this afternoon water came through the old tiles that had been dislodged while the roofers were walking on them.

So I will be off mattress shopping on Saturday morning as a bit of water leaked into my room

Hopefully the roofers will have a clear morning to finish things up
